The Gränsfors Bruks Splitting Wedge is slightly twisted with a grooved poll, bevelled corners and a hardened tip. Splitting wedges are used to split really big, knotty or cross-grained logs. Sometimes, it may be necessary to use several wedges in a parallel manner. The Splitting Wedge is used in conjunction with a Splitting Maul which, with its weight and strong poll with bevelled corners, is suitable for striking a wedge.

The Gränsfors Large Straight Adze is an old Scandinavian axe design with a transverse edge. It is perhaps best described as a chisel you can chop with. The adze has a wide range of applications. It can be used to square off logs and planks to create a smooth surface, to shape beams and purlins, and to form ribs for boats. The Large Straight Adze comes into its own when the user is standing over the log and chopping between his legs. The user can adjust his arms’length to control the cutting and thus create an extremely smooth surface.

The Gränsfors Bruk Large Splitting Axe can be used for splitting all types of firewood. It is forged and ground to a concave, quite thin blade at the bit. The axe cuts quickly and easily into wood and then effectively splits it as the broader section pushes the log apart. The handle has a protective steel collar below the axe head and circular grooves towards the end for an extra firm grip.
